Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system and method for wireless communications, and, in particular embodiments, to a system and method for uplink grant-free transmission scheme.
- a base station in a network.
- a user equipment sends an UL scheduling request to the base station.
- the BS receives the scheduling request, the BS sends an UL grant to the UE indicating its UL resource allocation.
- the UE then transmits data on the granted resource.
- the signaling resource overhead for the scheduling/grant mechanism can be quite large, especially in cases where the data transmitted is small. For example, for small packet transmissions of around 20 bytes each, the resources used by the scheduling/grant mechanism could be around 30%, or even 50%, of the packet's size.
- Another issue with this approach is the scheduling/grant procedure causes an initial delay in data transmission. Even when the resources are available, there is a minimum 7-8 ms delay in a typical wireless network between a scheduling request being sent and the first uplink data transmission.
- a method includes implementing, by a BS, a grant-free uplink transmission scheme.
- the grant-free uplink transmission scheme defines a first contention transmission unit (CTU) access region in a time-frequency domain, defines a plurality of CTUs, defines a default CTU mapping scheme by mapping at least some of the plurality of CTUs to the first CTU access region, and defines a default user equipment (UE) mapping scheme by defining rules for mapping a plurality of UEs to the plurality of CTUs.
- CTU contention transmission unit
- UE user equipment
- a base station includes a processor, and a computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor, the programming including instructions to implement a grant-free uplink transmission scheme, receive an uplink transmission from a user equipment (UE), attempt to decode the uplink transmission blindly, and indicate to the UE whether the attempt to decode the uplink transmission blindly was successful.
- a user equipment UE
- the grant-free uplink transmission scheme defines a plurality of contention transmission units (CTUs), defines one or more CTU access regions in a time-frequency domain, creates a default CTU mapping scheme by mapping the plurality of CTUs to the one or more CTU access regions, and creates a default UE mapping scheme by defining rules for mapping a plurality of UEs to the plurality of CTUs.
- CTUs contention transmission units
- a method for a grant-free transmission scheme includes implementing, by a user equipment (UE), a default contention transmission unit (CTU) mapping scheme by determining an appropriate CTU for uplink transmission in accordance with a UE mapping rule and the default CTU mapping scheme, and transmitting an uplink transmission, to a base station (BS), on the appropriate CTU.
- UE user equipment
- CTU contention transmission unit
- a user equipment includes a processor, and a computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor, the programming including instructions to implement a default contention transmission unit (CTU) mapping scheme by determining an appropriate CTU for uplink transmission in accordance with a UE mapping rule and the default CTU mapping scheme, and transmitting, to a base station (BS), an uplink transmission on the appropriate CTU, determine whether a collision has occurred based on an indication by the BS, and re-transmit, to the BS, the uplink transmission using an asynchronous hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) mechanism when the UE determines a collision has occurred.

- WiMAX worldwide interoperability for microwave access
- FIG. 1 illustrates a block diagram of a network 100 according to various embodiments.
- a base station (BS) 102 manages uplink and downlink communications for various UEs 104 - 114 within its coverage area 116 .
- BS 102 may alternatively be referred to as a cell tower, an eNodeB, an access network, and the like.
- BS 102 may support transmissions for multiple cellular carriers concurrently.
- BS 102 implements a grant-free uplink transmission scheme, wherein contention transmission unit (CTU) access regions are defined so that UEs 104 - 114 may contend for and access uplink resources without a request/grant mechanism.
- CTU contention transmission unit
- the grant-free uplink transmission scheme may be defined by the BS, or it may be set in a wireless standard (e.g., 3GPP).
- UEs 104 - 114 may be mapped to various CTU access regions to avoid collision (i.e., when two or more UEs attempt to transmit data on the same uplink resource). However, if collision occurs, UEs 104 - 114 may resolve collisions using an asynchronous HARQ (hybrid automatic repeat request) method.
- BS 102 blindly (i.e., without explicit signaling) detects active UEs and decodes received uplink transmissions.
- UEs 104 - 114 may send uplink transmissions without the BS allocating resources to request/grant mechanisms. Therefore, total network overhead resources are saved. Furthermore, this system allows for time savings during uplink by bypassing the request/grant scheme. Although only one BS 102 and six UEs 104 - 114 are illustrated in FIG. 1 , a typical network may include multiple BS each covering transmissions from a varying multitude of UEs in its geographic coverage area.
- Network 100 uses various high level signaling mechanisms to enable and configure grant-free transmissions.
- UEs 104 - 114 capable of grant-free transmissions signal this capability to BS 102 .
- This allows BS 102 to support both grant-free transmissions and traditional signal/grant transmissions (e.g., for older UE models) simultaneously.
- the relevant UEs may signal this capability by, for example, RRC (radio resource control) signaling defined in the 3GPP (third generation partnership project) standard.
- a new field may be added to the UE capability list in RRC signaling to indicate whether the UE supports grant-free transmissions.
- one or more existing fields can be modified or inferred from in order to indicate grant-free support.
- BS 102 also uses high-level mechanisms (e.g., a broadcast channel or a slow signaling channel) to notify UEs 104 - 114 of information necessary to enable and configure a grant-free transmission scheme.
- BS 102 may signal that it supports grant-free transmissions, its search space and access codes for CTU access regions, a maximum size of a signature set (i.e., the total number of signatures defined), a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) setting, and the like.
- MCS modulation and coding scheme
- BS 102 may update this information from time to time using, for example, a slow signaling channel (e.g., a signaling channel that only occurs in the order of hundreds of milliseconds instead of occurring in every TTI).
- a slow signaling channel e.g., a signaling channel that only occurs in the order of hundreds of milliseconds instead of occurring in every TTI.
- the BS 102 implements a grant-free uplink transmission scheme.
- the grant-free transmission uplink scheme defines CTU access regions to enable grant-free transmissions by UE 104 - 114 .
- a CTU is a basic resource, predefined by network 100 , for contention transmissions.
- Each CTU may be a combination of time, frequency, code-domain, and/or pilot elements.
- Code-domain elements may be CDMA (code division multiple access) codes, LDS (low-density signature) signatures, SCMA (sparse code multiple access) codebooks, and the like. These possible code-domain elements are referred to generically as “signatures” hereinafter.
- Multiple UEs may contend for the same CTU.
- the size of a CTU is preset by the network and may take into account an expected transmission size, the amount of desired padding, and/or MCS levels.
- a CTU access region is a time-frequency region where contention transmission occurs.
- the grant-free uplink transmission scheme may define multiple CTU access regions for network 100 .
- the grant-free transmission uplink scheme may be defined by BS 102 via high level signaling (e.g., through a broadcast channel) or it may be pre-defined by a standard and implemented in UEs (e.g., in a UE's firmware).
- the regions may exist in one or more frequency bands (intra-band or inter-band) and may occupy the entire uplink transmission bandwidth or a portion of the total transmission bandwidth of BS 102 or a carrier supported by BS 102 .
- a CTU access region that occupies only a portion of the bandwidth allows BS 102 to simultaneously support uplink transmissions under a traditional request/grant scheme (e.g., for older UE models that cannot support grant-free transmissions). Furthermore, BS 102 may utilize unused CTUs for scheduled transmissions under a request/grant scheme, or BS 102 may adjust the size of CTU access regions if portions of the access regions are not used for a period of time. Furthermore, the CTU access regions may frequency hop periodically. BS 102 may signal these changes in CTU access region size and frequency to UEs 104 - 114 through a slow signaling channel.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an example configuration for various CTU access regions defined by BS 102 .
- BS 102 supports transmissions for three carriers each operating at frequencies F 1 , F 2 and F 3 with bandwidth BW 1 , BW 2 and BW 3 .
- FIG. 2 illustrates example CTU access regions 200 defined in all three carriers using different configurations. The configurations shown in FIG. 2 are for illustrative purposes only, and alternative CTU access region configurations may be defined in various embodiments.
- each CTU access region may be categorized differently to provide different types of service to varying UE types.
- the CTU access regions may be categorized to support different quality of service (QoS) levels, different UE configurations (e.g., in situations of carrier aggregation), different UE subscribed levels of service, different UE geometries, or a combination thereof.
- QoS quality of service
- each CTU access region may be configured to support a different number of UEs.
- the size of each CTU access region may vary depending on the expected number of UEs using the region. For example, the size of a CTU access region may be based the history of loading in the CTU access region (such as the number of UEs), UE collision probability estimations, and/or measured UE collisions over a period of time.
- FIG. 3 illustrates an example CTU resource definition in various CTU access regions.
- FIG. 3 illustrates four CTU access regions 302 - 308 .
- the available bandwidth is divided into time-frequency regions for CTU access region 302 - 308 , with each access region 302 - 308 occupying a predefined number of resource blocks (e.g., access region 302 occupies RBs 1 - 4 ) of bandwidth.
- CTUs are mapped identically to access regions 302 - 308 , but varying views of this mapping are shown for illustrative purposes.
- each CTU access region is capable of supporting up to thirty-six UEs contending for the thirty-six CTUs defined in each region.
- Each CTU is a combination of time, frequency, signature, and pilot.
- Each access region 302 - 308 occupies a distinct frequency-time region. These frequency-time regions are further broken down to each support six signatures (S 1 -S 6 ) and six pilots mapped to each signature to create thirty-six total pilots (P 1 -P 36 ).
- a pilot/signature decorrelator at BS 102 is used to detect and decode individual UE signals and transmissions.
- Various embodiments support signature collisions (i.e., when several UEs simultaneously access the same frequency-time resources by using the same signature).
- signature collisions irreparably degrade UE performance and should be absolutely avoided.
- the transmitted information can still be decoded by BS 102 using various decoding schemes (e.g., a JMPA scheme as described in detail in subsequent paragraphs).
- signature collisions between two UEs do not affect the performance of other UEs (e.g., UEs 108 - 114 ). Therefore, signature collisions are not detrimental to overall system performance.
- Various embodiments map multiple potential UEs to the same frequency-time-signature resource so that, at each contention transmission, the system may be fully loaded.
- pilot collisions may not be supported. Similar to signature collision, pilot collision refers to cases when multiple UEs simultaneously access the same frequency-time-signature resources by using the same pilot sequence. However, unlike signature collisions, pilot collisions may lead to irreparable results in a grant-free transmission scheme. This is due to BS 102 being unable to decode a UE's transmission information in pilot collision scenarios because BS 102 's is unable to estimate the individual channels of UEs using the same pilot. For example, assume two UEs (UE 104 and 106 ) have the same pilot and their channels are h 1 and h 2 , then BS 102 can only estimate a channel of quality of h 1 +h 2 for both UEs 104 and 106 .
- Various embodiments may define a number of unique pilots (e.g. thirty-six pilots per access region in FIG. 3 ) depending on the number of UEs supported in the system.
- the specific numbers given in FIG. 3 are for illustrative purposes only, and the specific configuration of the CTU access regions and CTUs may vary depending on the network.
- Various embodiments enable grant-free transmissions through the inclusion of mechanisms for collision avoidance through UE to CTU mapping/re-mapping and collision resolution through asynchronous HARQ.
- the UE For a UE to successfully perform uplink transmissions in a grant-free scheme, the UE must determine a CTU on which data can be sent.
- a UE determines the CTU it should use for transmissions based on predefined mapping rules known by both the UE (e.g., UEs 104 - 114 ) and the base stations (e.g., BS 102 ) in a network (e.g., network 100 ).
- These mapping rules may be implicit (i.e., default) rules pre-defined for the UE (e.g.
- mapping configurations are pre-defined in a wireless standard, such as 3GPP, and the index of the applicable mapping configuration is signaled to a UE by the BS.
- the grant-free uplink transmission scheme assigns a unique, identifying CTU index, I CTU , to each CTU in the CTU access regions.
- UEs determine which CTUs to transmit on based on mapping rules for choosing an appropriate CTU index.
- the mapping of CTU indexes may be distributed uniformly over the available resources taking into account the size of the CTU regions over the time-frequency domain and the desire to reduce BS decoding complexity.
- the size of the CTU regions is taken into account so that UEs are not mapped to the same subset of available time-frequency resources.
- FIG. 4 illustrates such a distribution of CTU indexes over the CTU access regions.
- Each signature-pilot grid 402 - 408 corresponds to a time-frequency access region 302 - 308 from FIG. 3 .
- indexes are distributed in the following order: time, frequency, signature, and then pilot. For example, index 0 is mapped to a first time and a first frequency. Index 1 is then mapped to a second time in the first frequency. Index 2 is mapped to the first time in a second frequency, and index 3 is mapped to the second time in the second frequency. Only when all the time-frequency combinations are exhausted is the next index (index 4) mapped to a different signature in the first time and first frequency.
- CTU index mapping all 144 CTU indexes (i.e., four access regions multiplied by thirty-six pilots per region) are mapped to distribute UEs over the region and reduce the chance of signature and pilot collision.
- Various alternative embodiments may use different mapping rules for CTU index mapping.
- mapping rules allows a UE to automatically transmit data on the mapped CTU as soon as it enters a BS's coverage area without additional signaling.
- These default mapping rules may be based on a UE's dedicated connection signature (DCS), its DCS index assigned by a BS, the total number of CTUs, and/or other parameters such as subframe number.
- DCS dedicated connection signature
- a UE's DCS index may be assigned to the UE by a BS via high level signaling (e.g., through a broadcast, multicast, or unicast channel). Furthermore, this DCS index number may be used in conjunction with CTU index mapping to evenly distribute UEs across the CTU access regions. For example, when a UE enters a BS's (e.g., BS 102 ) coverage area, the BS may receive notice of the UE entering its area.
- a subset of UEs may be re-mapped periodically by the network to reduce collisions.
- UEs may be remapped in cases when UEs exchange packets frequently in a data session (referred to as active UEs). These active UEs may experience higher probabilities of collision when they are unevenly distributed across the available CTU access regions.
- FIG. 5A illustrates various UEs 502 - 516 mapped to four CTU access regions 518 - 524 under default mapping rules.
- UEs 502 , 504 , 514 , and 516 are active UEs mapped to two of the four available CTU access regions, increasing their probability for collision.
- a BS associated with the UEs determines that the default mapping is causing too many collisions and remaps certain UEs (e.g., UE 504 and 514 ) to the other CTU access regions as shown in FIG. 5B .
- BS 102 may detect the high level of collisions through high level signaling from the UEs or through repeated failed attempts to decode transmitted information (i.e., as previously discussed, pilot collisions cause failed attempts to decode transmission data).
- active UEs may be initially mapped to the same CTU in an access region. When the BS determines collisions are occurring due to this mapping, the active UEs may be re-mapped to different CTUs in the same access region.
- the various UEs 502 - 516 may revert to default mapping rules either implicitly when the UEs are no longer active or explicitly through network signaling. In alternative embodiments, this type of temporary re-mapping may also be used to provide certain UEs with dedicated resources for very time-sensitive transmissions when requested by the UE or configured by the network.
- the number of initial collisions in a CTU access region may be controlled. However, collisions may still occur and must be resolved.
- the UE When transmissions are successful, the UE will be notified by the BS through, for example, an ACK (acknowledgement) signal.
- the BS only sends the ACK signal when transmissions are successful. Therefore, if a UE does not receive an ACK signal within a predetermined time period, the UE determines that collision has occurred.
- the BS may receive an NACK (negative acknowledgement)] signal when the transmission fails. The UE assumes transmission was successful unless it receives a NACK.
- Asynchronous HARQ methods differ from synchronous HARQ methods in that the UE does not attempt to retransmit on the same CTU when collision occurs. Rather the UE may choose a different CTU to retransmit on. For example, a random backoff procedure may be implemented. Each UE picks a backoff time period (e.g., a next TTI) randomly within a contention window to retransmit data. At the next TTI, the UE transmits data.
- the contention window size is a system parameter that may be signaled to the UE using high-level signaling.
- BS 102 When BS 102 receives transmitted information, it blindly decodes the transmitted information (referred to as blindly because BS 102 does not know which UE transmitted the information or which UEs are active in a network). For example, BS 102 may use JMPA (joint signature and data detection using MPA (message passing algorithm)) methods to blindly decode the transmitted information.
- JMPA joint signature and data detection using MPA (message passing algorithm)
- MPA methods rely on channel knowledge and user-specific information to detect and decode data. JMPA initially assume all possible users might be active. It then iteratively detects the active users and simultaneously tries to detect their transmitted data. At the end of the iteration, among the all possible user pool, a list of active users and their detected data are provided by JMPA.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a block diagram of a JMPA detector 602 , channel estimator 604 , with an active UE detector 606 to simplify the potentially high complexity of the JMPA process.
- a list of all potential UEs is fed into JMPA detector 602 , channel estimator 604 , and active UE detector 606 .
- Active UE detector 606 uses the list of all potential UEs and received transmission data (e.g., all transmissions received by the BS from the CTU access regions) to generate a smaller list of potential active UEs. For example, as previously discussed multiple pilots may be correlated with each signature.
- active UE detector 606 determines a signature is not active, all corresponding pilots (i.e., CTU indexes/potential UEs) correlated with the inactive signature are also inactive. These pilots are removed from the list of potential UEs. If active UE detector 606 determines a pilot is inactive, it is taken off the list as well. In this manner, active UE detector 606 may decrease the list of potential active UEs for channel estimator 604 and JMPA detector 602 , simplifying the decoding process. Furthermore, JMPA detector 602 may feed an updated list of potentially active UEs back to active UE detector 606 . For example, JMPA detector 602 may determine that a second signature is inactive; this information is fed back to active UE detector 606 so that the corresponding pilots related to the second signature may be eliminated from the list of potential UEs.
- CTU indexes/potential UEs CTU indexes/potential UEs
- uplink transmission performance depends on the number of the active signatures. A fewer number of overlaid signatures correlates to better expected performance from a MPA detector, such as the JMPA detector. This idea can be used to implicitly control the uplink quality.
- the network can statistically control the average number of the users transmitting within the same CTU access region. For example, different numbers of UEs can be grouped together to access different CTU access regions. The network can also limit the number of pilots and/or signatures in a CTU access region.
- This long-term link-adaptation mechanism is controlled by the network through the defining of CTU access regions and the mapping of UEs to access regions.
- FIG. 7A illustrates a flow diagram of network activity (e.g., through BS 102 ) according to various embodiments.
- BS 102 defines CTU access regions.
- BS 102 maps various CTU indexes to the CTU access region. Each CTU index corresponds to a CTU a UE (e.g., UE 104 ) may perform grant-free transmissions on.
- BS 102 uses high-level signaling (e.g., through a broadcast channel) to send information enabling grant-free transmissions.
- This high-level signaling includes information on the defined CTU access regions, number of CTUs in the access regions and/or CTU index map.
- the high-level signaling may also include assigned DCS index information, and the like.
- Steps 702 - 706 illustrate BS 102 defining and implementing a grant-free uplink transmission scheme.
- BS 102 may perform none or a subset of steps 702 - 706 because certain steps are pre-configured for BS 102 by a standard.
- a standard may eliminate step 702 by pre-defining CTU access regions.
- BS 102 need only perform steps 704 and 706 (i.e., mapping CTU indexes to the CTU access regions and transmitting information).
- steps 704 and 706 i.e., mapping CTU indexes to the CTU access regions and transmitting information.
- a standard defines the grant-free uplink transmission scheme and BS 102 need only implement the grant-free uplink transmission scheme.
- BS 102 receives an uplink transmission from UE 104 .
- the BS decodes the uplink transmission information blindly using, for example, a JMPA and active UE detector method.
- BS 102 determines whether the decoding was successful. If not, BS 102 assumes that collision has occurred, and waits to receive another uplink transmission.
- BS 102 also indicates to UE 104 whether the decoding was successful.
- BS 102 may do this by sending an ACK signal only if the transmission is successfully decoded. Alternatively, BS 102 may send a NACK signal if the transmission was not successfully decoded.
- BS 102 determines if the number of failed decodings (i.e., collisions) is above a certain configurable threshold. If not, BS 102 waits for the next transmission. If the number of failures meets a certain threshold, BS 102 uses this information and overall conditions (e.g. distribution of active UEs in the CTUs) to make decision on remapping the UEs to other CTU indexes in the same or a different CTU access region in step 718 . BS 102 then returns to step 706 to send the remapped CTU information via high-level signaling (e.g., broadcast, multicast, or unicast) to the UEs in its coverage area.
- high-level signaling e.g., broadcast, multicast, or unicast
- FIG. 8A illustrates a flow diagram of UE activity in accordance with various embodiments.
- UE e.g., UE 104
- UE 104 receives high-level signaling information from the BS.
- This high level signaling information includes CTU access region definitions, total number of CTUs, default mapping rules, and the like. Alternatively, UE 104 may be preconfigured with default mapping rules.
- UE 104 determines an appropriate CTU to conduct uplink transmissions on (e.g., UE 104 may determine an appropriate CTU index using default mapping rules).
- Step 808 UE 104 transmits information on the appropriate CTU.
- UE 104 determines whether collision has occurred based on an indication from the BS. For example, the UE may wait a predetermined amount of time for an ACK signal. If an ACK signal is received, then in step 812 , the uplink procedure is concluded and UE 104 moves on to its next task. If no ACK signal is received, UE 104 determines that collision has occurred, and moves to step 814 .
- step 814 UE 104 resolves the collision using an asynchronous HARQ method. Alternatively, UE 104 assumes no collision has occurred unless it receives a NACK. If a NACK is received, the UE then continues with the collision resolution procedure.
- UE 104 determines if the number of collisions exceed a certain threshold. If not, then UE 104 returns to step 814 and resolves the collision using an asynchronous HARQ method. If the threshold is met, then in step 818 , UE 104 may request remapping of CTUs by the BS. UE 104 then returns to step 804 and waits to receive the remapping information form the BS and proceed with the uplink procedure. In another embodiment, step 818 is optional and UEs do not send a request for remapping. The decision whether to remap UEs is made by the BS based on aggregate information on the collisions of UEs in the CTUs. UE 104 may continue to try to resolve the collision using an asynchronous HARQ method.
